India Lost A Decade Under UPA Rule: Modi

  Accusing the Congress-led UPA government ofpushing back the country by a decade, BJP's prime ministerial candidateNarendra Modi today said that he would endeavour to provide effectivegovernance as it was more important than good policies.

  "We need direction, determination and dedication... We need goodgovernance. Bad governance is like diabetes which invites all kinds ofailments", he said while unveiling his vision for development at a seminaron 'A New Growth Paradigm for India'.

  Modi further said: "We have reached a stage where the country is slippingback... We have lost a decade, we have to start afresh. When Atal BihariVajpayee left, the growth was 8.4 per cent, now the growth has come down to 4.8per cent."

  India, he said, was not only suffering from fiscal deficit but also from"governance deficit, trust deficit, security deficit and moral deficit.

  "There is despondency. We have lost confidence. If we can regainconfidence, we can not only move but can also run."

  Observing that India is a young country with democratic institutions and demandfor products, Modi said, "we should consider them as strengths and makepolicies keeping them in view".

  Referring to specific issues, Modi said that he would attempt to focus equallyon the three pillars of growth -- manufacturing, agriculture and servicessectors, and try to bridge the gap between rich and poor to make developmentmore inclusive.
